Finally, we have just launched a BUAV island-wide advertising campaign on Mauritius, highlighting the role of the country in the international monkey trade. Each year up to 10,000 of monkeys are ripped from their families and exported to laboratories worldwide to suffer and die in cruel experiments.

It is an industry that has largely been kept hidden from residents and tourists and the BUAV has played a vital role in highlighting the suffering inflicted on these sentient beings. To find out how you can help our campaign, please visit: www.buav.org/take-action
